Which ships and ports are eligible?

The offer applies to sailings on two ships. Guests can book trips aboard the Disney Wish, which sails out of Port Canaveral, Florida, or the Disney Dream, which departs from Fort Lauderdale.

A majority of eligible sailings are on the Disney Wish. The Disney Dream, meanwhile, has only five qualifying trips in total, all scheduled for April.

When can travellers book and sail?

Disney Cruise Line clarified that bookings must be made by March 29. The company also noted that “the number of staterooms allocated for this offer is limited.”

The discounted sailings themselves fall within a specific window, covering select voyages between April and July. The promotion cannot be combined with other discounts or offers, including guaranteed staterooms with restrictions, as per a report by The US Sun.

How can guests take advantage of the offer?

Interested travellers can contact Disney Cruise Line directly for a quote or work with their preferred travel advisor to explore eligible sailings. For those staying on land instead, Walt Disney World is also offering deals on park entry prices.
